The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (30 December 2018):

Aloha

    (From the Hawaiian greeting) A system of
   contention resolution devised at The University of Hawaii.
   Packets are broadcast when ready, the sender listens to
   see if they collide and if so re-transmits after a random
   time.  Slotted Aloha constrains packets to start at the
   beginning of a time slot.  Basic Aloha is appropriate to long
   propagation time nets (e.g. satellite).  For shorter
   propagation times, carrier sense protocols are possible.
